This is proof that Drake is a real risk-taker, Ngannou is the underdog here yet he picked Ngannou to be the winner, I wonder with all the losses he's been getting lately, is he not getting advice to take it easy betting that huge amount and showing it off to the public.
People may think that it is ok to bet that huge amount of money or he wants to prove to people that he can bet that amount and it is ok with him.
Anyway it's his money he is now 3 straight losses with his bets, let's see what he'll bet in the coming Fury - Usyk fight, I'm sure he will bet here, he can't resist the temptation not to.

He is wrong again, and his losses have gotten bigger. I hope it's not a big deal for him since he is making a lot of money through his career, but if he is a compulsive gambler, the time will come when he will be living on the street. What's the reason for publicizing this kind of loss? Is he promoting another gambling site aside from Stake?

He plays like a compulsive gambler if you watch all his gambling stream but we all know that it’s part of his partnership with Stake.com probably including this one that’s why I don’t really convinced that he think about this loss as important to him.

Afaik he is only promoting Stake and he was being paid 38M per year for just promoting Stake probably like this bet. https://blockworks.co/news/crypto-casino-stake-revenue#

Anyway, regardless, for the majority of us, it's still a huge amount of money, so it's normal that we will buy into this news, and we will feel that he is wasting his money. No one has infinite money, although he has more than $100 million in net worth, but it's not that big compared to his bets, which are close to a million dollars.

Agree especially those users that doesn’t knew Drake partnership with Stake. This news is surely a hit for all the gamblers.

You should check the bet slip the is shared in the article. It was a stake betting slip so it's more likely just a promotion or a sponsored bet. Though we can't confirm since it's his money, but for normal bettors especially those who are betting huge money will just keep it as a secret. Here, Drake loves to published his betslips and with stake on it, then I assume it's just for the promotion as people will be convince that stake are willing to accept big bets like that range, or even bigger.

If that was only a sponsored bet then his money will not be affected, in fact it might be his networth that will increase from the earnings of that kind of promotion he is making.

Well here he goes again, why is it that whenever he posted his betting slips he kept losing, first when he bet Adesanya was going to beat Strickland, and then when he bet Strickland was going to beat Duplesis, these are three in a row its over 2 million dollars, I'd like to think Drake is not good in analysis when it comes to combat sports. Cheesy

I don't think this is going to be the last we'll see Drake betting, but somebody should advise him to just post his winning tickets after the fight if he wants to bet, not before the fight, to save him from embarrassment in case he loses again.

Drake is still in demand he can still recover those losses through endorsements and concerts and he will continue to bet as long as he can find a way to make money.

Again and again and again, he keeps on losing money. I once wanted to reference the time he lost about a million dollars during the World Cup, and I was amazed that he has been losing really huge amount of money. Different tickets with up to $500,000 that he lost are posted on the internet. It is his money anyways, he knows best how he wants to spend it, and maybe he makes more from the tickets that he wins.

First of all, I am not surprised that Drake has lost a bet. I cant remember that he has won anything anyway. All he does is boasting that he has bet a large amount and later post that he has lost. Secondly I am not surprised that Stake casino is the place where he has placed a bet and lost. It is already obvious that there is an agreement between him and Stake and that is the way he promotes it.

But what surprises me, and surprises always - the amounts celebrities bet. Not $500k, not $600k, not $1 million. But $615k or other not round amounts. Who can explain this thing?

No one can explain about this because mostly peoples love to place bets as much they can, or sometimes they are having as you already mentioned contracts with sites or casinos give them bonuses which are also added to their bet slip which is shown for the publicity.

I am also feeling most chances Stake is having contract just because of this they are also showing him on their site for the publicity, and he is also always post his slips which are placed on their site so this all is publicity stunt for them as many loves to follow these celebrities, and they use their influence for promotion and have good benefit.

Drake has been known to make large bets on single matches, and most of the time he loses and some times he wins. He won't be the only person who loses money in this fight, as a lot of people were convinced that Francis Ngannou was going to win this match as the odds were against Antony Joshua.

The fight took the fans by surprise, as the result was not what they all expected. Both fighters have made history in the past, and no matter how strong they both appear to be, one must submit to the other.

Some news and fan feeds are already carrying the news that the Drake curse is back again, and this could be the reason why he lost $615,000, which, if the fight was as he predicted, could have gone home with $1,900,000. It's not his first big loss; we get over it.

- So, does that mean that it didn't just happen to him once, but rather that he has lost large bet amounts in the casino many times? Is that right? That person is terrible; if you throw money, it's that easy for him.

Maybe that gambler has also experienced winning millions; that's why he has the courage to bet a large amount. Think about the amount he loses; it will be several decades before they earn it, and maybe the others, even if they work until old age, are not enough to get that amount.

It is intriguing when a known celebrity like Drake losses with his bets. But these money of his can be recovered easily by him knowing that he's got some sponsorships and deals with his label.

While this is like a life savings to the most of us, this how the rich people gamble. It's like nothing on them but I am sure that there's a point of his moment that he's terribly feeling bad about such losses, everytime he's into this situation.

As that's easy money to recover for him, I also have some losses that can easily be recovered but too far to compare to him. Cheesy

This is not the first loss of Drake when it comes to high stake betting. If you follow his instagram, you will understand that he's really one of the high rollers in sportsbetting at stake. Do remember, we don't know how much he is being paid at stake being the Ambassador of this bookie. And actually, even if he was on the losing side here, he's also getting something from it. Publishing his losing bet alone has some kind of money deal with stake. Though when he posted it, the results were not yet out.

I know someone already posted that bet but I want to share the perspective that Drake has 146 millions of followers and so the impact is quite a big deal here. And you know, people talk. Thus, a very good campaign for stake as well even if he lost this bet.

I knew it.

I knew that he's one roller and if we're talking about a real gambler, he's the one. He stakes a lot of money that he can afford to lose.

But of course for a pleb like me, that's already a lot and a lifesavings for me that I can't even attain to gamble that with one bet whether in a dice or any sports bet.

That's what he deserves... Immediately when I saw his tickets from Twitter, I knew that was gonna turn out bad..

what's normally the reasons why he shows off his tickets after betting if I may ask? To create some sort of shades?.. lol, now the whole world knows he's lost the game and he has remained quiet ever since then... Isn't that enough shame for the day?

It has nothing to do with shame or beef, I don’t think Drake has any beef with Anthony Joshua. I think he just enjoys betting on the underdog. Also Drake has a partnership deal with Stake. That’s why he is always posting his gambling slips online, it’s another way of subtly promoting the casino.

I won't dare to wager on the same option as his - inspite having way lesser budget for the game (assuming I normally wager games).. why bet on Francis over Joshua? The former is just an overhyped piece of shit.

Sandra 🧑‍🦰

Why call Francis an overhyped piece of shit? You may not like him as a boxer but his story is inspiring to many Africans and people all around the world. I don’t see you touching lives the way he has done so next time before you spilling negativity on the internet, think about what you’re doing.

And it means absolutely nothing to him at all. That's the thing I love about money and find so fascinating, this money would be enough for me to live off forever, it would be an amount that I do not even need to make any money further.

I do not mean any investments, savings account interest, gold, crypto, nothing. Give me 615k and I will not be able to finish that off until I die, it would be impossible unless dollar has like 1000% value loss. This dude can afford to lose it on a single bet and nothing in his life ever changes. That's the gap between the rich and the poor, that has to be something so important in discussions of politics, but this is not the place. Overall, I have seen him gamble a million per bet, so he should be fine.

but at least this could have gone a way for the helpless people out there than to just lost it in gamble.

It's his money, no need to tell him that, let the man enjoy what he earned for. He is not obliged to give those who are broke, your money your rules.

But, do you know that he has too many philanthropic activity^[1] already before saying this?

Well I am not trying to question his action and decision towards the lost in his bet but as I feels that could help lots of people around the world but however is his choice and I can't question his decision, you know most times when those that doesn't have sufficient money or are not wealth are spending money they spend according to how they could be able to lose or to what they can afford to lose and when someone lose higher amount than what expected it affects their hearts.

Someone could be doing good and to whatever but when it turns out like this they would say why don't you do it this way just because someone risk that money to gamble then regret follows immediately, but if winning comes they follows and rejoice with him that he tried to have made this winning maybe they could also encouraged him to increased his bet next time to enable him win higher amount than this.

It was too bad because everyone, including Drake, thought Francis Ngannou would win. Gambling is always about luck, if luck was good he might have won more than the 615k dollar he had not lost. Actually this win was not in his luck which is why he lost this bet. But he participated because he could control himself by losing the amount he had bet.

I don't know why Drake became so popular for gambling and sharing his predictions online, many of which have eventually gone against him and he lost. He plays his games on the Stake.com platform, so i am just thinking if some of these bets is just a form of promotion for the betting company more than him actually trying to make money from the games. However, do not make the decision of staking more than you can afford to lose because of this, Drake is very rich and the amount staked might not be anything to him, and this could also be nothing more than promotion.

I just can not risk such huge amount for only one game that am not even sure will what the end result will become. Some gamblers are just full of hard risk and surprises. For the records, Drake have always been known as a big gambler that usually stake huge amount and he also ends up to lose a huge amount most of time. In the history of gambling, there are other serious gamblers who have lost large amount in their bankroll. Even if I become very rich, I will not gamble off a huge amount just on one game.

only those who used what they can't afford to lose to gamble are the one who makes noise over every little lost just as me.

For example, when a gambler loses an amount he can afford to lose there is no need complaining about it openly because it is something they are used to and have prepared for mentally before it happened. It is people who are usually aware of their gambling choices and the amounts they have used in gambling that usually worry about it, and sing it out that these people lost this kind of amount of money. Had Drake not made public his bet slip, we never would have known of his losses, and the amount he has lost to this betting on boxing.

When it comes to bet then for sure there are tons who hadnt been able to expect for Joshua to win. You do know on what im saying.

We know anything is possible and no one can predicts how he could win this match although from the physical out look nobody could have tell the truth Joshua will win but fortunately he won the match against his opponent it's a thing of shock and surprising.
Although I have came across some post over here in the forum about his gambling lifestyle so the money lost was amount he can be able to lose without the need to attach any emotional feelings towards it, only those who used what they can't afford to lose to gamble are the one who makes noise over every little lost just as me.

Now what was his total winning I mean if that his bet on this fight win what amount was he supposed to win, $615k quiet large enough for someone to lose at this dying economy because of trying to make more money where it could lead to losing more. Well I won't picture this because it always affects mind even though he bets with he can afford to lose but at least this could have gone a way for the helpless people out there than to just lost it in gamble.

Drake is been known to be a heavy gambling on which it would be something that the community would really be able to tell or assume out that this amount is really nothing. We've seen on how
huge he do make out bets and how much he do win or lose. This is something that really great to see win hitting up those huge wins and same goes when losing money on which regret is there.
We do know that Drake is usually hanging out on Stake and showing those bet sizes and those winning on losing which could make you that drooled.
When it comes to bet then for sure there are tons who hadnt been able to expect for Joshua to win. You do know on what im saying.
